Mobile apps to help you rescue deleted data and photos

Have you ever deleted precious data on your phone by mistake and wished it was all a dream and that you could turn back time?

While on a computer you can restore it to a previous point in time, with smartphones it is a bit more complicated if the data was not backed up.

You could also go to a third party and professional to retrieve the lost data, but this can be very expensive.

If you have a smartphone, it probably contains precious data like your most treasured photos, your list of contacts, important chats and messages, critical documents and much more.

What do you do if you accidentally erase some data or change your mind after deleting a pic?

TCL recommends some tools to effortlessly restore your lost data.
